Hi Whitey

It's been a couple of weeks since the 64bit version was release and most ppl are finding it stable with good performance improvements.  On clients, the 64bit version is automatically used when on a 64bit machine.  I'm not sure how our server is set up, i'm guessing it won't use it automatically?  If not, and if the server will run it ok, can we give it a try please?

Thanks

I tried to run the 64bit version but it caused issues on the server, I think due to the service manager back end being 32bit.  I have been disconnected form the server and am unable to reconnect to change ARMA back to 32 bit but I could stop the service using the Web Admin.  Please don't restart ARMA 3 using the web portal until I can get back on and set it back to 32bit.

I got back in and have changed it back to 32bit.   The service is running again and can be stopped and started as needed.  I am going on holiday on Monday for a week so will see if there is a a way to get things working at 64bit when I get back but we may have to chose between running the 64 bit with manual stop/starts or 32bit with the web admin page.

Ok, cool.  Thanks for giving it a go.
